What did the Swedes do to you to deserve this?

It’s really telling, isn’t it?

But is it a metric pizza or an imperial pizza?

I guess you can file something with an appropriate court. Something the embassy would do probably. Get it suspended pending more investigation, or a higher court ruling against the lawfulness of whatever you’re complaining about

Do it.

This is way more accurate

A very, very, very long lever.

Finding a place to use as fulcrum is left as an exercise to the reader.

canmount=off and then mount them in your .profile or .bashrc ?

I don’t expect the current government to ever fix the second part, though.

I think he was talking about the con_ in consequence

Who tf uses a 56 years old collectible for breakfast?

Interesting. Thanks. Now I’ll have an informed eye twitch. :)

Volume… Tons…

Eye twitch

I think it’s octal

Beatrix Potter, maybe?

Do you know who also liked to have his face everywhere?

Impedance mismatch between two pieces of equipment (amplifier and speaker, in this case) is a thing, and depending on how the amplifier is built can be a problem. But for the piece of wire connecting them to behave like a transmission line it needs to be a significant fraction of the wavelength of the signal, which at audio frequency is quite a lot, so unless you have your amplifier on the other side of town it is totally irrelevant. The guy was blabbing nonsense. We didn’t talk about quarks.

Resistance can reduce the volume. E.g. if your wires are too thin for the current you want to send over them. The guy was talking about impedance.

Once someone tried to tell me that the wrong cable impedance to the speakers affected sound. Asked him what is the wavelength at audio frequencies, conversation died.
